Cast: Stefano Cassetti, Estelle Perron

In 1986, Roberto Succo escaped from an Italian mental institution, where he had been incarcerated for the brutal murder of his parents, and fled to France where he left a trail of inexplicable murders, rapes and abductions. This gripping dramatisation of true events gives a terrifying insight into the disturbed mind of a serial killer and also follows the desperate attempts by the police to hunt down France’s most wanted man.
